Link Me Up, Scotty - Lies, More Lies, and Stupidity

Wednesday, July 5, 2017

Speaking of lying liars of lies, here's a quick analysis about what the Republicans are trying to cover up with their shitty health care plan. They know they're going to hurt millions of people with this legislation, and they simply don't care. But they don't want you to know they don't care, so they continue to lie their lying asses off.

You know what scares the shit out of me? This. Watching these two freeze-dried whackadoos get into some sort of nuclear pissing contest with millions of lives in the balance. Angels and ministers of grace, defend us.

Republican supporters of ChumpCare are laying low during the recess because hardly anyone wants that piece of shit to pass, and the Republicans simply don't want to hear it. They've demonstrated again and again and again that the best interest of their constituents is not even in their top 10 concerns - why can't conservatives see this, and act accordingly? It truly is one of the great mysteries of our time.

ALSO: Be sure to communicate your opinion of ChumpCare to your Senators and Representatives DAILY until the decision is made one way or the other. Let's keep the pressure on!
